Daifuku Mochi

Mochi had always been my favorite Japanese dessert.

just because its so smooth and the texture is like. 

like marshmallows! 

the texture is so soft like pillows and they’re not too swweeet! (if you reduce the sugar. =) mmmm.

i first decided to make Daifuku from a vegan website  (can you believe it) that has irresistible pictures. yummmyy!! it turned out quicker and tastier than i expected. definitely something i'd make over and over again :D

the anko (red bean) paste. i like it a little coarse. 

mixing the mochiko paste

drop a teaspoon full on the hot mochi skin

top extra if you like!! i ate the red bean paste by itself. its DELICIOUS!!

make mochi in different colors!

take plenty pictures of it.

and EAT!

next time. 

im gonna make ice cream filled ones! =)
